Madonna covered Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah” during a surprise performance at the 2018 Met Gala tonight. Watch snippets below, and check out professionally shot footage of the performance on Vogue. Surrounded by backup singers dressed as monks, she also did her hit single “Like a Prayer.” The songs were appropriate choices considering this year’s theme, “Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination.”
